Cortenay

Hey there! I'm Cortenay —

I'm a forty-something Midwesterner navigating life through my intersecting identities as a Black, queer, self-employed activist. My own healing journey has taught me the power of intentional connection and how vital it is for our collective well-being.

In my private practice as a Somatic Experiencing® practitioner, trauma-informed yoga teacher, and somatic bodyworker, I support people in reconnecting with their bodies as a way to heal and thrive. My approach blends trauma-focused somatic work with a deep commitment to social justice, creating space to explore how our personal healing ties into our shared struggles for justice and liberation.

With a heart rooted in decolonization, community-building, and care, I’m passionate about guiding spaces where we can remember the wisdom of our bodies—together. Join me in this journey of healing, connection, and collective wellness.

Let’s explore what’s possible when we move with intention, curiosity, and compassion.
